Welcome to #sectwits @k8em0

For those #sectwits that don't remember Security Twits:

@danielkennedy74 It reminds me very much of early #sectwits. Which is coincidentally the last time I was earnestly active on Twitter.

@jack_daniel Welcome back to Mastodon, where all the Cool Kids come to play.

Many of the OG #sectwits are also in the federation. :flan_wave:​

Dear #sectwits . Does anyone know if k8em0 has moved over to Mastodon yet? She has a counter.social account, but as the name implies, it's a bit ... anti-social towards the rest of the federated network.

@XenoPhage Check out the hashtag #sectwits then see who they follow...so on and so forth. That helped me quite a bit

Good luck. 🙂

@Gdead Check out #sectwits

This does have an early, #sectwits type feel to it.

Hello! 👋 I believe an #introduction is in order…

I’ve been in #infosec for over 17 years 😀

Most of my career has been in offensive security. I started out as a pentester and did a lot of #redteam stuff (before #redteaming was red teaming), #physicalsecurity, #networksecurity, and was even a developer for a short period of time 😬. Got the #appsec bug until I moved into management/leadership roles. But #appsec is still my “technical” passion. I’m currently the AVP of Consulting at Bishop Fox where I lead several teams of super talented and amazing hackers! 🦊

While I was getting into pentesting, I did a bunch of research on the security and privacy of social networks right around the time social was in its infancy (circa 2008). Got to speak about that at a bunch of conferences back in the day which allowed me to meet some amazing people (including many of the OG #sectwits). That was around the time I also got into #podcasting and started the Social Media Security Podcast which later became @sharedsecurity. I’ve been podcasting for over 13 years now!

I admit I was more of a lurker on the birdapp but mostly because I found real engagement difficult plus I wasn’t a fan of the toxicity (especially more recently). So far Mastodon feels very different and almost like the original birdapp before algorithms and the mess we see today.

Anyway, I’ll be tooting about #offensivesecurity #appsec #cybersecurity #privacy #leadership #careers #podcasting and probably #cats. I happen to have 5 of them! 😺

My #introduction 👋🏻

I'm Keith. I'm an Arkansas native and call Little Rock home.

I'm a GRC specialist. In a few weeks I'll be the Principal Compliance Specialist at LastPass. I've been a consultant & vCISO. I specialize in building effective security programs that auditors loved (SOC2/HITRUST). I'm also a policy wonk.

I'm a former Network Engineer and came up through Service Management.

I've been on the bird site since it was SMS only and followed a handful of #sectwits back in my Vegas/Blackhat days.

But I do way more than infosec. I'm a weather geek, a Disaster Relief volunteer, & an Arkansas Razorbacks fan. I love to go RV camping & kayaking and I'm blessed to have a wife & 2 kids.

Thankful to have found this place and keep up with old friends and make new ones.

#GRC #Razorbacks #Arkansas #SOC2

So is #sectwits now #sectoots? Cause I’m thinking, hell yes.

Dropping the #sectwits hashtag in here, because that's my people. Even if the bird app isn't still around eventually.

The #sectwits ride again

#sectwits community, how was that like?

@meneer ultimately yes, but first provide a beacon to draw a 15 year old community back together.

localhost is still 127.0.0.1 for a lot of people - give them a way to find ::1

#sectwits #infosec

Just enabled a new pinned column in the "advanced web interface" for my #sectwits feed.

Feels like 2009 again :flan_hug:​

Let's go #sectwits

🤗♥️ In memory of...

@Myrcurial @kriggins ah, back in the day when our following list was a group we could read every tweet from, and used #sectwits to find folks!
